I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Microsoft in Sept 2021
Interview
Great communication, very thorough, quite long (3 months). I got a great sense of the team and organization I would be joining, and that gave me the confidence to accept the offer (after negotiation).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you handle ambiguity? What would you do if you needed to influence but could not control an outcome? How do you build trust with other teams?
2 week after applying online the recruiter called, we set up a phone screen, after that completed a 3x back to back interview with an hour break in between. Not too bad overall and very manageable

Question 1
Tell me about a difficult stakeholder and how you handled the situation
Interviewed at Microsoft but I did not get an offer. Team was nice and there were free drinks and some snacks on site which was a plus. I would love to apply and interview again!
I applied online. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA)
Interview
Typical behavioral interview process. STAR format style interview questions. Why do you want to work at Microsoft, tell me about a time questions, greatest strengths, greatest weaknesses. Consisted of a recruiter screening, and three back to back interviews with senior and principal PMs.
